Borno State governor Kashim Shettima was in
tears yesterday as he appealed to indigenes of the
state to embark on a 3-day fast for the missing
Chibok girls. The proposed fasting, which will run
from May12th - 14th, is to seek the face of God
over the missing girls and for peace to return to
the state.
The Governor got very emotional while in a
meeting with the Kibaku Area Development
Association (KADA), Chibok, who came to protest
the abduction of the missing girls.
“We are calling on all Muslims and Christians
to embark on a three-day fast to seek God’s
help toward rescuing our girls. All of us must
fast because we worship the same God.
There is no politics or religious issues in this
matter because the abduction of the girls is
something that should bother us all as
parents, uncles and guardians" he said
The governor also expressed shock that some
individuals believe the kidnap never happened, and
is all a scam "It is unthinkable for anyone to say
such a story could be fabricated." He said
